6 million on SETI :-)

Post by UBT - Timbo »

Hi all

So, since the announcement that SETI was going into hibernation, my plan was to concentrate on this project in the hope of achieving a better final total, by the 31st March.

I've now achieved the first part of the plan, which was to hit 6 million credits. That's taken about 20 days to earn just under 750,000 credits since 16th Feb when I had 5,265,035 credits.

I am now on 6,013,718

On 4th March I had 5,741,420 credits so, I've earned 272,298 in about 4 days - that's 68,074 credits per day - which is more than the 46,600 credits per day I thought I would need (based on my previous guesswork).

So, 21 days left and the aim is to hit 7 million. I should be able to make it...but there's a FB Sprint coming along too in the next week and another one a week after that.

Best foot forwards as they say.

regards
Tim

Not a bad idea to max SETI out before they go away. Congrats on the milestone :)

Hi all

Many thanks for the messages. :-)

Y'know, I really wish I could have got to 10 million - as I've got there on Amicable, Einstein and Asteroids (and of course surpassed that total on numerous GPU based projects (GPUGrid, Moo!, MilkyWay, Collatz and PrimeGrid).

But c'est la vie....7 million is very possible and if I can hit maybe 7.5m, then all the better. :-)
